Webinar - Reducing Embodied Carbon with EC3 and Tally

Interested in embodied carbon and life cycle assessment (LCA) as it pertains to architectural design? Be sure to check out a webinar this week (January 16, 2020) on the new feature/workflow which allows Tally to export data to EC3...


Don't know what Tally or EC3 are, keep reading to learn more...


Webinar:

Here is the webinar info from Roderick Bates at KieranTimberlake (via this LinkedIn post):
"Some things just go together. Peanut butter and jelly, french fries and ketchup, and now you can add Tally and EC3 to the list. The bill of materials export from Tally to EC3 has us pretty excited and we'll be covering all the details in our upcoming webinar on 1/16 at 1pm EST. You can register for it here:https://lnkd.in/ey2Q2yF"


What is EC3?
"Increasingly the building industry and building owners are becoming aware that materials matter and are seeking ways to evaluate the emissions associated with making these materials. Until now, they have not had a reliable or efficient way to compare them. The free, cloud-based, open-access Embodied Carbon in Construction Calculator (EC3) tool simplifies this complex problem, giving users the information they need to make more informed decisions on embodied carbon, allowing them to enact positive change. Collaborating partners first demonstrated the product at Greenbuild, November 19-22, 2019 in Atlanta, GA."

What is Tally?
"The first LCA app that lets you calculate the environmental impacts of your building material selections directly in an Autodesk® Revit® model."
